Global Data Collection

Cross-Tab is one of the largest purchasers of online sample. In 2012, we delivered in excess of 1.7 million quantitative interviews to our clients globally, touching respondents in 60 different markets and 25+ languages. Given the scale of our work, we have cultivated a deep expertise in managing online research and have developed strong partnerships with online panel firms around the world.

We believe that the representativeness and quality of sample is one of the most critical factors in the success of a research project. So we provide our clients with panel sources that have been given careful scrutiny, including testing a panel's industry standing and its ability to deliver consistent quality. Some of the basis criteria for partner selection we use include:

Reputed global panel providers

Members of ESOMAR and CASRO

Long history in the panel business

Panel distribution representative of the population

Robust demographic profiles-collection of major relevant data points of panel members

High quality panel recruitment

Proactive panel management

Quality systems in place to insure data integrity

Extensive online and offline data checks are carried out to ensure high quality data for our clients

We then go one step further in ensuring the quality of our data respondents by subscribing to Relevant ID. With Relevant ID, we can ensure that duplicate ID's are excluded from the sample, and only people in the specific geographic locations you indicated are able to complete the study.
